Installation Tips How to use Quick-Connect fitting To connect: 1. Check and cut the tubing end squarely and cleanly with utility knife or scissors. 2. Make a mark ½ inch from the end of the tubing, this mark will help guide the tubing installation.

To disconnect: 1. Remove the blue Lock Clip. 2. With the blue lock clip removed, use your thumb and index finger to hold down the lock sleeve. This will release the metal teeth holding the tube in place. While holding the lock sleeve down with that hand, use your other hand to remove the tube from the fitting.

Sample Installation A. Source water from Feed Water Adapter → B. Source water to water inlet next to 1st stage C. Waste water from Flow Restrictor →D. Waste water to Drain Saddle E. RO water from Automatic Shut-off Valve → F. RO water to Storage Tank G.
Installation Steps Note: Steps 1 – 7 are independent, and can be performed in any order. Step 1: Installing the Feed Water Adapter (AFW) 1.1 Turn off the Cold Water Line via the Cold Water Shutoff Valve (CWSV) under the sink. Open the kitchen faucet to release pressure and make sure water has stopped before proceeding to the next step.
Step 3: Installing the Drain Saddle 3.1 Choose a spot on the drain pipe that is convenient for installing the drain saddle and tubing. It is recommended that you install in a horizontal pipe to minimize dripping sounds. 3.2 Drill a 1 /4” hole on the drain pipe; paste the black sticky pad around the hole. 3.3 Cut the WHITE tubing end to make a 45 degree angle.
Step 6: Installing the Reverse Osmosis Membrane 6.1 Open the membrane housing screw cap. First, you will need to disconnect the white 1 / 4” tubing from the Inlet quick- fitting on the membrane housing cap (refer to How to Use Quick-Fitting section), and then unscrew (counter- clockwise) the cap.
7.3 Connect the Flow Restrictor (point C), which is a 3-inch long cylinder with a FLOW sign laying besides the membrane housing, to the Drain Saddle (point D) with the White tubing. 7.4 On the right side of the Post Carbon Filter (FT15 5 stage), connect the Tee-fitting (point E) and the Tank Valve (point F) with the YELLOW tubing.

system out, lay it down, and remove the housings at that point. Be careful with the tubing connections when removing the system. 3. Twist off the filter housing in a counter-clockwise direction when looking from the bottom. Use a housing wrench (the bigger one) if necessary. Refer to Installation Step 1.1 to install the new vertical filter cartridges and twist the housings back on.
OWNER’S MANUAL Please read this manual for useful reverse osmosis system and maintenance information. Section 1: Knowledge Base What Is Reverse Osmosis? Reverse osmosis, also known as hyper filtration, is a membrane filtration process that separates undesirable materials from water by using pressure to force the water molecules through a semi- permeable membrane.
Note: You may or may not have these contaminants in your water. The percentage rejection rate is for reference only. Percentages may vary since water chemistry varies in each water supply. Does Reverse Osmosis remove pharmaceuticals from water? Yes, the 5-stage RO with carbon pre-filters can remove most of pharmaceuticals from water. An activated carbon filter gives these contaminants a charge so they are absorbed and removed.
● Get a bucket under the tank and remove tank by disconnecting the ball valve. ● Dump the water from the tank by turning it upside down (through the top stem). You may add air from the front valve to help emptying the water. ●...
Faucet Leaks or Drips Possible Causes and Solution for water leaks from faucet spout: Adjust faucet by turning the tee bar located under the handle to provide a small amount of free play in the handle when it’s shut off. Should this not work, repair or replace the faucet.
